Soft Surroundings Background

I love coloring with alcohol markers. It has been my favorite medium for a very long time because the blending capabilites you have with the colors. I still use up whatever ink I have left in my blendabilities, but since Stampin' Up! no longer has the blendabilities and sometimes I would like an alcohol marker in a specific Stampin' Up! color, I do it myself. I have been filling my aqua brush with alcohol and color my images with reinkers when I need a specific color. Here is a card I made with this technique. I love the softness of the colors and the way the stamp can be used as a background.

Cardstock: Whisper White, Watermelon Wonder

Ink: Memento black, Reinkers: Pink Pirouette, Blushing Bride, Watermelon Wonder, Garden Green, Soft Sky, Daffodil Delight

Accessories: Pool Party Glitter Ribbon
